Description

Facial tissues for hair care

Field of the Invention

The invention is in the field of hair care and relates to the use of facial tissues for styling hair.

State of the art

Facial tissues are a form of application that is becoming increasingly important in the field of personal care. As a rule, these are wet wipes that represent textile fabrics or tissue paper that are soaked in a cleaning or care formulation.

Starting with the cleaning function aimed at in the first market-ready cosmetic tissues, care is increasingly the focus today. For example, in international patent application WO 95/35411 wet wipes are proposed which are impregnated with a lotion which, in addition to mineral oil, fatty acid esters, fatty alcohol ethoxylates and fatty alcohols. Numerous patent applications describe cleaning wipes in which solutions are drawn onto different fabrics. More recently, cloths are also available that are in dry form and must be moistened before use, as described in the patent applications WO 99/13861 and WO 01/08657.

These wipes are primarily used for the care and cleaning of the skin. Even if the application in the hair area is mentioned, the applications only refer to cleaning or conditioning effects. They enable simple, clean and quick use, which is also desirable in the field of hair cosmetics. Styling applications would also be conceivable in which the formulations for shaping the hair are applied with the aid of cosmetic wipes. Here, however, there arises the difficulty that the production of the facial tissues requires the application of low-viscosity solutions so that the preparations can be absorbed by the tissue. However, styling preparations generally have a gel-like consistency or an increased viscosity due to the polymers they contain.

It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide cosmetic wipes for styling hair using well-tolerated auxiliaries which enable technically simple and inexpensive production. The form of application should enable a quick, clean and even distribution of the preparation in the hair. Furthermore, the formulations should not lead to a rigid sticking of the hair, so that the elasticity of the hair is retained and the application does not lead to drying out and high brittleness of the hair.

Description of the invention

The invention relates to the use of cosmetic tissues, which are characterized in that they are impregnated with a solution containing

(a) film maker and

(b) cationic surfactants for styling hair

Cosmetic wipes containing film formers in combination with cationic surfactants have been found to perform the complex task in an excellent manner. While the film formers are responsible for the later styling of the hair, the cationic surfactants enable the application form to be produced easily, since by reducing the surface tension they simplify the absorption of the solution into the tissue. The impregnation solutions proved to be easy to process. The surfactants also improve the distribution of the film-forming agents in the hair. On the one hand, the selected film formers had good shaping properties with strong hold without leading to a loss in elasticity and volume of the hair or to increased brittleness, but on the other hand only set the viscosity of the impregnation solutions to a low degree, so that workability remained guaranteed. The volume of the hair and the shine were retained even hours after application. The formulation is easy to comb out so that it is not necessary to rinse the hair afterwards. The application form "cosmetic tissue" enables hairstyle design with a very good mechanical distribution of the formulation in the hair, good design options and without leaving a sticky feeling. A simple and hygienic application for shaping the hair is therefore also possible where hand washing according to the conventional styling process cannot be done. film formers

Common film formers are, for example, chitosan, microcrystalline chitosan, quaternized chitosan, polyvinylpyrrolidone, vinylpyrrolidone-vinyl acetate copolymers, polymers of the acrylic acid series, quaternary cellulose derivatives, collagen, hyaluronic acid or its salts and similar compounds.

Cationic biopolymers

Chitosans, which also belong to the group of hydrocolloids, are among the best known and most preferred cationic biopolymers in the sense of the invention. From a chemical point of view, these are partially deacetylated chitins of different molecular weights, which contain the following - idealized - monomer unit (I):

The production of chitosans is based on chitin, preferably the shell remains of crustaceans, which are available in large quantities as cheap raw materials. The chitin is used in a process that was first developed by Hackmann et al. has been described, usually first deproteinized by adding bases, demineralized by adding mineral acids and finally deacety- lated by adding strong bases, it being possible for the molecular weights to be distributed over a broad spectrum. Appropriate methods are, for example, made from Makromol. Chem. 177 _f 3589 (1976) or French patent application FR 2701266 AI known. Preferred types are those as disclosed in German patent applications DE 4442987 AI and DE 19537001 AI (Henkel), which have an average molecular weight of 800,000 to 1,200,000 Daltons, a Brookfield viscosity (1% by weight in Glycolic acid) below 5000 mPas, a degree of deacetylation in the range from 80 to 88% and an ash content of less than 0.3% by weight. In addition to the chitosans as typical cationic biopolymers, anionically, nonionically or cationically derivatized chitosans, such as carboxylation, succinylation, alkoxylation or qua- Temierungsprodukte in question, as described for example in the German patent DE 3713099 C2 and the German patent application DE 19604180 AI.

The term cationic biopolymers should also be understood to include related feedstocks such as gelatin, collagens and collagen breakdown products.

Cationic surfactants

Typical examples of cationic surfactants are quaternary ammonium compounds, such as, for example, dimethyldistearylammonium chloride, or cetyltrimethylammonium chloride. It is also possible to use ester quats, in particular quaternized fatty acid trialkanolamine ester salts.

The term "ester quats" is generally understood to mean quaternized fatty acid triethanolamine ester salts. These are known substances which can be obtained by the relevant methods of preparative organic chemistry. In this connection, reference is made to the international patent application WO 91/01295 (Henkel), according to which triethanolamine is partially esterified with fatty acids in the presence of hypophosphorous acid, air is passed through it and then quaternized with dimethyl sulfate or ethylene oxide. German Patent DE-Cl 4308794 (Henkel) also describes a process for the preparation of solid ester quats known in which the quaternization of triethanolamine esters in the presence of suitable

Dispersants, preferably fatty alcohols. Overviews on this topic

are described, for example, by R. Puchta et al. in Tens.Surf.Det., 30, 186 (1993), M. Brock in

Typical examples of ester quats which can be used in the context of the invention are products based on caproic acid, caprylic acid, capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, isostearic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, elaidic acid, arachic acid, behenic acid and erucic acid and also theirs Technical blends, such as those that occur when natural fats and oils are split. Preferably technical Cι ₂ / ι ι used _{6 8 8} -fatty cocofatty acids and, in particular partly hydrogenated Cι _{6 /} ιs tallow or palm oil fatty acids, as well as elaidic acid-rich Cι. The fatty acids and the triethanolamine can be used in a molar ratio of 1.1: 1 to 3: 1 to produce the quaternized esters. With regard to the application properties of the ester quats, an application ratio of 1.2: 1 to 2.2: 1, preferably 1.5: 1 to 1.9: 1, has proven to be particularly advantageous. The preferred esterquats are technical mixtures of mono-, di- and triesters with an average degree of esterification of 1.5 to 1.9 and are derived from technical Ci ₆ i ₈ - tallow or palm fatty acid (iodine number 0 to 40). From an application point of view, quaternized fatty acid triethanolamine ester salts of the formula (II) have proven to be particularly advantageous in which R ^α CO is an acyl radical having 16 to 18 carbon atoms, R ^{2 is} R ² O, R ^{3 is} hydrogen, R ^{4 is} a methyl group , m, n and p is 0 and X is methyl sulfate.

In addition to the quaternized fatty acid triethanolamine ester salts, quaternized ester salts of fatty acids with diethanolalkylamines of the formula (III) may also be used as ester quats.

With regard to the selection of the preferred fatty acids and the optimal degree of esterification, the examples given for (II) also apply to the esterquats of the formulas (III) and (IV). The esterquats usually come on the market in the form of 50 to 90% strength by weight alcoholic solutions, which can be diluted with water if required.

Tissue papers and tissue tissue for facial tissues

Tissue papers and tissues to which the present invention relates can be constructed in one or more layers. As a rule, the papers have a weight per square meter of 10 to 65, preferably 15 to 30 g and a density of 0.6 g / cm ³ and less.

In addition to the paper-based tissues, there are also appropriate tissue fabrics that are made from fiber or fleece. Examples for natural fibers include silk, cellulose, keratin, wool, cotton, jute, linen, flak, for synthetic fibers acetate, acrylate, cellulose ester, polyamide, polyester, polyolefin, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane - fibers. The use of hydrophilic fibers, natural fibers such as cotton fabrics and cotton blend fabrics is preferred here, polyolefin fabrics hydrophilized by additives are particularly preferred. Reaction products of 1 part of polyethylene glycol with 2 parts of fatty acids with 10 to 12 carbon atoms or their derivatives are used for the hydrophilization of the polyolefin-containing fabrics. The fabric can be in the form of a glove and is then preferably multilayer, so that the inner fabric layer of the glove turns out to be more hydrophobic. tion and provides protection against contact of the hand with the formulation or with moisture.

Cleaning solution and solvent

The weight ratio of the dry tissue to the applied cleaning solution should be 1: 0.1 to 1: 5, preferably 1: 0.5 to 1: 3 and particularly preferably 1: 1 to 1: 2. The solvent in the cleaning solution should consist of water or water / alcohol mixtures. Isopropanol, propanol and ethanol are used as alcohols. The alcohol content can be used to control the drying time, hold and shine of the styled hair. If the amount of alcohol is high and certain auxiliary substances are used, the gel structure is too solid or brittle and the hair dries out. The solutions used for the impregnation contain 0 to 95% by weight of alcohol, preferably 3 to 70% by weight of alcohol, particularly preferably 5 to 40% by weight of alcohol.

The alcohol content of the solution used also has a decisive influence in the production of dry facial tissues that are moistened before use, since the drying rate and thus the production costs can be optimized.

Due to the presence of film formers, the viscosity of the impregnation solutions is sometimes too high to be absorbed into the wipes by the capillary action of the fabric. Alcohols or alcohol / water mixtures are preferably used as solvents to reduce the viscosity.

production method

The process for the production of the facial tissues according to the invention is characterized in that a tissue containing a solution

(a) film maker and

(B) moistened cationic surfactants and optionally subsequently drying out the solvent. The moistening can be carried out by spraying the solution onto the fabric or immersing the fabric in the impregnation solution. For the subsequent drying, the viscosity of the solution used and the desired product are decisive.

If a dry cloth is desired as the product, which must be moistened with a defined amount of water before use, the solvent in the impregnated cloths should be left to a residual content of 0.1 to 3% by weight, preferably less than 0.1% by weight, during manufacture .% - based on the weight of the cloth. This can be achieved by exposing the moistened wipes to an elevated temperature, a warm air flow, roller drying or vacuum drying. An essential reason for a subsequent drying after impregnation is to be found in the viscosity of the solution to be processed. Since the capillary action of the pores of the tissue is only sufficient to absorb thin solutions, the impregnation solutions can be diluted with solvent before the tissue is moistened to a low viscosity sufficient for absorption. The surface tension of the solution, which can be optimized by the selection and quantity of the surfactants, is also crucial. After moistening, the excess solvent is dried off again. The subsequent drying is stopped at the desired moisture level of the wipes. This is determined by the ease of use. The styling agents must also be given back to the hair in sufficient quantities from the towel. The malleability of the hair, the distribution of the substances in the hair and the moisture content of the hair obtained after use play a decisive role. Depending on the composition of the recipe, the amount and type of film former, the moisture content of the wipes can be adjusted. Cosmetic wipes which contain solvents in amounts of 10 to 70% by weight, preferably 30 to 50% by weight, based on the moist cleaning cloth, lead to a satisfactory simple and clean form of use. The type of solvent, for example the amount of alcohol used, determines the drying process and the quality of the subsequent product. The drying process of the treated hair can be significantly shortened by larger amounts of alcohol.

Industrial applicability

The use of facial tissues is suggested, characterized in that they are impregnated with a solution which typically has the following composition: (al) 0.1-5% by weight, preferably 0.3-3% by weight, in particular 0.5-1% by weight, of cationic biopolymers and / or

Perfume oils and flavors

Perfume oils include mixtures of natural and synthetic fragrances. Natural fragrances are extracts of flowers (lily, lavender, roses, jasmine, neroli, ylang-ylang), stems and leaves (geranium, patchouli, petitgrain), fruits (anise, coriander, caraway, juniper), fruit peel (bergamot, lemon, Oranges), roots (mace, angelica, celery, cardamom, costus, iris, calmus), wood (pine, sandal, guaiac, cedar, rosewood), herbs and grasses (tarragon, lemongrass, sage, thyme), Needles and twigs (spruce, fir, pine, mountain pine), resins and balms (galbanum, elemi, benzoin, myrrh, olibanum, opoponax). Animal raw materials, such as civet and castoreum, are also suitable. Typical synthetic fragrance compounds are products of the ester, ether, aldehyde, ketone, alcohol and hydrocarbon type. Fragrance compounds of the ester type are e.g. Benzyl acetate, phenoxyethyl isobutyrate, p-tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate, linalyl acetate, dimethylbenzylcarbinylacetate, phenylethyl acetate, linalylbenzoate, benzyl formate, ethyl methylphenylglycinate, allylcyclohexylpropionate, styrallyl propalate and benzyl. The ethers include, for example, benzyl ethyl ether, the aldehydes e.g. the linear alkanals with 8 to 18 carbon atoms, citral, citronellal, citronellyloxyacetaldehyde, cyclamenaldehyde, hydroxycitronellal, Liliai and bourgeonal, to the ketones e.g. the joonons, α-isomethylionone and methylcedryl ketone, the alcohols anethole, citronellol, eugenol, isoeugenol, geraniol, linalool, phenylethyl alcohol and terpineol, the hydrocarbons mainly include the terpenes and balsams. However, preference is given to using mixtures of different fragrances which together produce an appealing fragrance. Essential oils of lower volatility, which are mostly used as aroma components, are also suitable as perfume oils, e.g. Sage oil, chamomile oil, clove oil, lemon balm oil, mint oil, cinnamon leaf oil, linden blossom oil, juniper berry oil, _Vetiveröl, __ OlibanöI, „Galbanumöl, - LaboIanumöl and Lavandinöl.

The dyes which can be used are those substances which are suitable and approved for cosmetic purposes, as compiled, for example, in the publication "Cosmetic Dyes" by the Dye Commission of the German Research Foundation, Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, 1984, pp. 81-106. Examples are culinary red A (CI 16255), patent blue V (CI42051), indigotine (CI73015), chlorophyllin (CI75810), quinoline yellow (CI47005), titanium dioxide (CI77891), indanthrene blue RS (CI 69800) and madder varnish (CI 58000). Luminol may also be present as the luminescent dye. These dyes are usually used in concentrations of 0.001 to 0.1% by weight, based on the mixture as a whole.

The total proportion of auxiliaries and additives can be 1 to 50, preferably 5 to 40% by weight, based on the composition.

Examples

Different impregnation solutions were made by simply mixing the components; Subsequently, thin cotton gloves weighing 12 g each were moistened with 20 g of the solutions and rubbed into the hair to be treated.

In a second experiment, the gloves impregnated with the solution 4, 5 or 6 were dried at 30 ° C. for 3, 6 or 24 hours. The semi-dry gloves were used to add hair to the hair without adding water; the dried (30 ° C., 24 h) impregnated gloves were again moistened with 17 g of water before use.
